Title: Kenda Parker DT tires
Post by: fire raptor on September 03, 2008, 06:09:50 PM
I just bought two sets of the new Kenda Parker DT tires. These are a brand new tire from Kenda made for desert racing and hard trail riding. They are 6 ply and only come in a 22" rear and a 23" front. I bought then from Rockey Mountain ATV for 257.50$ for a set of 4. That was no tax and included delivery. I will be taking a long ride in Baja the first week of October and will do a review on them when I get back. I hope they are a smoother ride than my ITP.s and have at least equal flat resistance . FR.

Just got back from 700 miles in Baja. We had to reroute the ride due to lack of gas in some areas. The Kenda DT,s performed xlnt. Two Raptors 8 Kendas 0 flats. On the pavement they had no bounce or vibration that we had experienced with the ITP,s. The wear factor was excellent. We ran about 5 to 6 lbs front and rear. Compared to the price of some of the other brands and if you want a 6 ply desert tire they cannot be beat. As always opinions vary and riders have personal preferences but we have found a new tire to run.
